About

Shuihong Zhu is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of biomaterials and bioelectronics, whose work is redefining how natural proteins can be harnessed for next-generation flexible devices. Zhu’s key research areas include biopolymer-based electronics, piezoelectric biomaterials, and self-powered interactive systems. Their most impactful contribution is the development of wool keratin as a structural biomaterial and natural mediator for fabricating biocompatible and robust bioelectronic platforms—a study that has garnered 51 citations since 2023 and addresses critical challenges in soft bioelectronic device stability. Zhu further advanced the field by promoting piezoelectricity in amino acids through fluorination (17 citations), offering a novel strategy to design biodegradable, high-performance piezoelectric materials for sensing and energy harvesting. Most recently, Zhu engineered serum albumin hydrogels via protein re-association for self-powered intelligent interactive systems (9 citations), demonstrating a creative approach to merging protein engineering with energy autonomy. This body of work not only achieves high citation impact but also lays a foundation for sustainable, bioresorbable electronics—a transformative step toward eco-friendly healthcare and wearable technologies.
